Student Travel Support for the 2017 International Conference on Architecture Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS)

本提案用于支持参加2017年4月8日至12日在中国Xi举行的第22届ACM编程语言和操作系统架构支持国际会议（ASPLOS）的差旅费。ASPLOS是跨计算机体系结构和硬件，编程语言和编译器以及操作系统的多学科系统研究的首要论坛。ASPLOS中的论文可能针对不同的目标，如性能，能源和热效率，弹性，安全性和可持续性。该提案要求提供旅行支助资金，使学生能够支付前往和参加ASPLOS-22的费用。从NSF申请的资金将帮助支持预计参加ASPLOS的大量学生，包括那些不是ACM成员的学生。优先考虑美国公民和永久居民的学生，以及属于代表性不足群体的学生。随着摩尔定律的终结，大数据的爆炸式增长，从超低功耗可穿戴设备到兆兆级并行和云计算机的规模，以及对可持续性的需求，ASPLOS等论坛的重要性将继续增长，以及越来越多的以人为本的应用。ASPLOS采用系统研究，以新的方式直接针对这些新问题。从历史上看，该会议吸引了来自学术界和工业界的顶级研究论文，会议记录中发表的许多创新在处理器行业的历史上具有影响力。提交论文的录取率通常在15- 20%之间。

This proposal is for support of a travel to the 22nd ACM International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS), to be held in Xi'an, China, April 8-12, 2017. ASPLOS is a premier forum for multidisciplinary systems research spanning computer architecture and hardware, programming languages and compilers, and operating systems. Papers in ASPLOS may target diverse goals such as performance, energy and thermal efficiency, resiliency, security, and sustainability. The proposal requests travel support funds to enable students to defray the costs of traveling to and attending ASPLOS-22. The funds requested from NSF will help support a large number of students who are expected to attend ASPLOS, including those who are not ACM members. Priority will be given to students that are US citizens and permanent residents, as well as to students belonging to under-represented groups.The importance of forum such as ASPLOS continues to grow as we come to the end of Moore's Law, experience the explosion of big data, scales ranging from ultra-low power wearable devices to exascale parallel and cloud computers, and the need for sustainability, and increasingly human-centered applications. ASPLOS embraces systems research that directly targets these new problems in new ways. Historically, the conference has attracted top research papers from both academia and industry, and many innovations published in the proceedings have been influential in the history of the processor industry. The acceptance rates for submitted papers is typically between 15-20%.
